Ind. Law - More on "IU rifle incident is quickly resolved: No one was hurt; law student arrested"

Following up on this ILB entry from Oct. 17th, which quoted from the blog, Above the Law, the WSJ Blog today claims more information about the incident:

What jumped out at the [WSJ] Law Blog were reports that he was apparently aiming his rifle at his Real Estate Transfer Finance and Development casebook (pictured, top right). The book was found in the parking lot, shot clean through by two rounds, according to investigators. Sneed, who reportedly had an AR-15 and an AK-47 in his apartment, is reportedly set to undergo a psychiatric evaluation while awaiting a court appearance.

The Law Blog reached out for the authors of Real Estate Transfer Finance and Development, law professors Grant Nelson (pictured, bottom left) and Dale Whitman (pictured, bottom right). The book, now in its seventh edition, was first published in 1976. As far as we know, it’s the first time it’s been shot at.
